Join the Lab


Thanks for your interest in working as an undergraduate research assistant (RA) in our lab!

We typically recruit new RAs at the end of each academic year to either start in the summer or at the beginning of the fall semester in late August. Successful applicants to our RA positions can usually work ~ 9 hours a week on a volunteer or for-credit basis (9hrs = 3 credits per semester) for at least one academic year. It would be rare for us to accept rising seniors as new RAs, although if you’re interested, please apply. 

To apply to work with us, please complete this brief form that asks for your name, email address, and a resume attachment. In the resume, please include your contact information, year in school, GPA, and any prior or relevant experiences. We often accept people with no prior research experience (everyone needs to start somewhere!), but any prior work experiences are also relevant (e.g., life-guarding, babysitting, internships ... or working in finance — any and all of it counts!). If we’re actively recruiting, we will reply and give you further instructions to advance your application; if we’re not actively recruiting new RAs, we’ll keep your information on file and contact you when we’re looking again!
